Description Kevin Otte 2003-11-18 17:24:02 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030922

Description of problem:
The RHN satellite web interface and the GNOME Panel Applet both
indicate the availability of an updated kernel package
(kernel-2.4.21-4.0.1.EL).  However, up2date fails to find this package
as available.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
up2date-4.0.1-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install base operating system
2. Register with satellite (rhnreg_ks with activation key in my case)
3. up2date -uf


Actual Results:  Updated packages except kernel were downloaded and
installed.

Expected Results:  All updated packages should have been downloaded
and installed.

Comment 2 Kevin Otte 2003-11-18 18:13:22 UTC
Additionally, I attempted to upgrade the kernel by scheduling an
action for it via the RHN Satellite web interface.  The action
returned that it was successful, but an "rpm -q kernel" still showed
the old kernel (and only the old kernel) installed.


Comment 3 Kevin Otte 2003-12-11 19:33:00 UTC
I created a yum repository with just the kernel errata and pointed
up2date at it.  up2date then found it and installed it as it should. 
This leads me to believe there is some problem in the interaction with
up2date and our satellite.  We are running version 2.6.1 of the satellite.


Comment 4 Kevin Otte 2003-12-23 16:23:02 UTC
Changes were made to our satellite.  This bug has been fixed.  You may
resolve.
